An Artists Materials
Lucy’s award-winning artwork has earned acclaim for its captivating colours, engaging textures and uplifting style. The materials used by an artist during the creative process are very important. They are the medium through which artists express their imaginings and dreams. Good art materials are like old friends, they are reliable, valued, and spend a great deal of time getting to know the artists inner-self.
Art lovers will know Lucy’s chosen medium is pastel, loved by the artist as it offers a playful creative process. Lucy can blend and move colourful pigments across her canvas to form the striking shapes and atmospheric details that bring her scenes to life.
Lucy's materials of choice come from Unison Colour pastels which were first developed by artist John Hersey in the 1980s where they came from modest beginnings. Dissatisfied with the quality of pastels available, John began his own pastel production from an old coach house in Northumberland National Park. John and his family still live in the National Park and have grown a business out of what started as a local, individual enterprise driven by creativity - much like Lucy. The story behind Unison Colour pastels, with whom Lucy is an associated artist, you discover that the creators of these small pieces of pigment echo Lucy's own journey as an artist devoted to locality and landscape.
Lucy adds “Unison Colour produce outstanding pastels that allow me to bring quality to my art and the people who buy it. They have a lightfastness and longevity that I really value. The colours in this set are chosen specially by me to reflect what my work brings to the art market- playfulness, vibrancy, and real moments of happiness. I just love the creative process, there is nothing better than working with tangible, often messy creative materials.”
